Hi CR gang,
I actually still have a few of the complete 132mm axle sets set-up for ultra 6 freewheels with the thin locknut on non-drive side - complete with cones price is $12 plus shipping.
See my recent post for selling Brooks saddles for other stuff available.

\r?\n> If you hunt around you can find a C-Record or Croace d"Aune (spelling?) rear
\r?\n> hub locknut. It looks just like a NR locknut, but is 5 mm thick instead of 8 mm.
\r?\n> Then add 3mm to the right side and re-dish your rear wheel.

\r?\n> Maybe you know a clever machinist who can grind down a standard locknut &
\r?\n> grind new flats for the cone wrench. But that's the hard way.
